Yes we need to instead unquestionably believe rumours about wage offers.....that's much better

And if we did, then one I heard a few years ago is that at the start of his career JJB was on 'peanuts' for quite a while......I doubt that he's regretting his decision.

I'd take supposed 'massive' offers from the NRL with a pinch of salt in relation to someone like Baldwinson. No NRL side will sign a junior with very little first-team experience into their first team squad.

At best, they'll make them part of their 'second tier' squad, which has its own (very low) cap. At worst they'll be more like Daniel Smith - get your own visa, get paid beer money and maybe get a job in a pub.

A second-tier NRL wage may well be significantly higher than an U19s contract in SL, but would still be far less than a genuine first team player in SL. The question is simply whether a young player wants to try their hand in Oz/NZ - financially it won't change their lives in any meaningful way.

Explains the shape of his head...

So why isn't my head lamb chop shaped then?

You mean this isn't you?

Have you looked in the mirror?

Bazinga!

Gary has dug a little deeper I hear and matched the warriors offer for young baldwinson.

Great news TR if he signs on then onto others like Sutcliffe and Singleton et al.

Are you sure? I heard we'd broken the salary cap to keep Kirke.

Just back from 2 days in hospital suffering with shock (or in the case of the 'other' lamb chop - sock)

Al who?

Spedding. He's the younger, not quite as awesome brother of Richie.

If Wheels' source is to be believed he's already signed for the NZ Warriors file this one under "Epic Fail" by GH imo if true.
